Comment: This isn't the Idina we know now. It's very early Idina, so it's a lot more gritty than "I Stand," but I like it. "Minuet" is my favorite and the title track is SO beautiful! It's full of Idina's fun, laughing personality. Give it a listen!

Comment: I love Idina Menzel's voice. That being said, a couple of songs were okay but most of this was just not that good.

Comment: This has to be one of the most original albums I've ever listened to. It has it all: smooth, jazzy ballads; experimental pop sounds; acoustic. Most of her fans are used to her using an mellow-sounding Broadway voice, which I love; but this album really shows the versatility of her vocal styles. She doesn't hold back; she is completely honest in each song and tells us how she really feels. The lyrics really make you think about what she's saying. If you're a true-blue Idina fan like me, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Comment: Talent, creativity, and emotional depth combine to make this one of the best albums ever! While Ms. Menzel has one of the most amazing voices out there, she is much more than just a singer. She's written a wonderful variety of songs for this album from fun yet clever songs like "Minuet," "Planet Z" and "Think Too Much" to beautiful songs like "Heart on My Sleeve" and "Straw into Gold" to deep songs like "Larissa's Lagoon." You won't regret purchasing this album.

Summary: Disappointing 2008-02-13
Comment: When I ordered this, I guess I expected the content to be more like the performances she gave in "Rent" and "Wicked", that is to say, adult fare. I did not expect stuff akin to hip-hop or teeny bopper music. She is MUCH more talented that this dismal CD affords. I will order another- hopefully that better showcases her abilities. Sorry.
